#Vm fail to export as ovf vmware how to
I'm new to ovftool, I made reference to this article I was able to derive how to export from ESXi to local Windows PC *** ovftool documentation and download *** I'd like to update that I was able to export the said guest machine to OVF by using ovftool Had also excluded the download folder from the anti-virus.ĭoes it seem something to do with the Host Client that is limiting the download file size? This led me to think if it was download file size limitation - did not find any reference that IE 11 has download file size limitation ( ) When I did it in IE 11, the exact message was "The disk-1.vmdk download was interrupted." When I did it in Chrome, it showed network interruptions The disk-1 is about 22GB in size on the host, disk-2 is less than 1GB. The guest machine's OVF, and disk-2.vmdk were downloaded without errors, however, disk-1.vmdk couldn't be downloaded. I made a few export OVF attempts without success. On the host, I built a test VM from scratch Client version: 1.21.0 Client build number: 5724747 Intel NUC, latest BIOS, 2 x 1TB Intel 600p M2 SSDĢ. I have the following machine with ESXi 6.5ġ.
